PER CURIAM:
Jerome Anthony Howard seeks to appeal the district court’s
order denying relief on his petition filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2254
(West 1994 & Supp. 2000). We have reviewed the record and the dis-
trict court’s opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly,
we deny Howard’s motion for a certificate of appealability and
dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court. Howard
v. Green, No. CA-99-1800-AM (E.D. Va. filed Jan. 24, 2001; entered
Jan. 25, 2001). In light of our review of the entire record on
appeal, we deny Howard’s motion for in camera review. We dispense
with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are
adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument
would not aid the decisional process.
DISMISSED
